Streaming video causing slow down.

If you were to type 'mini cinema' into the in-game search you'd find a little project I'm working on. I have a screen with 3 buttons, each linking to a different media stream. The first two (movies and comedy) work fine and I have scaled the screen to fit them perfectly. There is no auto-scale enabled so they both run beautifully smooth. The third channel ('cartoons') slows everything down, the fps drops and the quality is no better than the previous two channels. It acts as though it's making an attempt to auto-scale everything and causing slow-down in the process.

Any idea of what might be causing it?

Problem fixed, I found a different version of the stream (less bit rate) and used that instead.
